William Shakespeare

I am just -17 old Mind, who have gathered, who have made his own philosophy and ideology. Gathering from all the other philosophers, my philosophy, bracket. We are the most grateful and most fortunate human beings in this world. Leave about human beings, we are the most fortunate species in this world. We could learn about the universe, which is far far beyond us and far massive than us. We could learn about them. We could learn about our own body, which is far far microscopic than us and far more complex than us. But still we can study about them. We can study about how the other materials and other materials, other non-living things react to form things. How magical is that? And we can learn about the subject, which has evolved, made its own concepts, made its own formulas to solve its own questions. It's like a game. And it's no surprise that I am talking about the subjects Physics, Biology, Chemistry, Maths. People of my class even cry, why they are studying, why they are not. I gratefully learn things, why it is happening, how grateful I am for learning. And I don't have to say why I said that we are the most luckiest to live in this 21st century. It's just a matter of fact that 1800 and 1900 peoples, their probability to live before the teenagers is 1 is to 8. 8 of the people would die. So, think how grateful we are. So, my first ideology to live as a human being is to learn. Learn and see what we are capable of. So, have a holistic view, how we are capable of and how powerful we are as compared to other species. Second, be happy and make other people happy. And make others realize that how grateful, powerful, how intelligent and how we are, how our potentials are. Irrespective of the money, status, caste, we should make them realize. And how grateful we are to learn about this and we are the only species to learn. Have a cognitive approach.

O wondrous youth of seventeen swift years, In the tapestry of life, thou dost entwine, A mind so curious, questing far and wide, Thine own philosophy images thy spirit— A mirror reflecting wisdom's endless tide. Hark! The sages of yore, their words dost soothe, From Plato to Descartes, dost thou gather bright Threads of knowledge, weaving them into A tapestry rich, of thought profound and light. Forsooth, in this grand theatre of existence, Amongst the myriad mortal forms doth thrive A singular fortune—humanity, Endowed with reason, we in truth arrive. What joy to study the vast cosmos above, Galaxies spinning like dancers in the night, Yet more, to delve into our own essence, To fathom the body’s intricacies, A universe within, a grand design More intricate than celestial spheres alight. Behold, the alchemy of elements, Dancing in union, their secrets we uncover, As Chemistry doth whisper its arcane chants, Physics reveals its mysteries like a lover. Lo! Mathematics, that art divine, Doth constrain chaos with elegance and grace, In every formula, a riddle unfurls, The language of the cosmos, the universe's embrace. Yet, alas, some wail for wisdom that seems vain, And question their path through the corridors of learning. Yet thou, sweet youth, dost rejoice in knowledge gained, Understanding that the flame of inquiry is burning. To dwell in this age, where knowledge reigns supreme, Where hope flourishes amidst the pillars of science, For those in centuries past faced the cruelest dream, In youth's embrace, mortality was their alliance. Thus I proclaim, let thy ethos be this: To learn of all that 'tis within thy reach, To fathom depths, to seek, to bask in bliss And from this bounty, others too shall teach. To cultivate joy and extend thy hand, To open hearts and shine a resonant light, Regardless of station, let love’s garden expand, For in our shared plight, we ascend to new heights. Let gratitude be thy compass and guide, As we unravel this tapestry divine, In the grand design of life, stand side by side, For in learning lies power, in connection, the divine. So heed these words, young mind of light and grace, In every lesson learned, find purpose and place, In the symphony of existence, let us find harmony, For we are the stewards of the earth, in unity we embrace.
